Don’t Be a Mutual Fund Dinosaur

Does your investment strategy still consist of buying and holding mutual funds? If so, then you might be considered a “mutual fund dinosaur.”

You see, with the volatility we’ve seen in the markets over the past couple of years, and with innovative products such as exchange-traded funds now heavily populating the investment landscape, a failure to evolve from investing in primitive mutual funds could have your assets going the way of the dinosaurs.

In my latest radio show, broadcast Feb. 13, my sons David and Michael stood in for me and devoted nearly the entire hour to a discussion of mutual funds. They explained that in many cases, mutual funds just aren’t serving investors the way they should. They also explained that for many investors, exchange-traded funds are the much better investment option.
